Hmm, I remember watching One Piece in Japan. If I recall correctly they aired it on a Saterday morning along with a bunch of other shows aimed at children like Power Rangers. Japan's a completely different culture and they allow stuff like that to be shown to children. I'm not saying that you shouldn't be watching it, I don't care. I myself watch Cardcaptor Sakura, Naruto, and even Pokemon once in a while. They're all aimed at children. |

One Piece, like a lot of shows of it's ilk, air in the afternoons. |

Sunday mornings are the more child-oriented blocks, as well as having a "magical theme". Notables include Konjiki no Gash Bell and Ojamajo DoReMi.

What about Saturday mornings, the air time of Mermaid Melody Pichipichi Pitch, Wagamama Fairy Mirumo do Pon!, and Fushigiboshi no Futago Hime? |

[quote="Jkid"]Ok I didn't expect 4kids to license Pretty Cure. I heard of the show in some anime blog circles. But doesn't 4Kids has enough programs to fill every Saturday of FoxBox? The best thing to do if you're really concern about it is to contact 4Kids and not watch the show.[/quote]
It's probably on the the reasons why the stopped doing "Mew Mew Power". They're showing 2 Magical Doremis and 2 Winx Clubs right now so they 2 more spots to fill anyway. Hika Yagami |

Al Kahn, if you can hear me, please put this somewhere, anywhere other than your little Fox thing. Miguzi, ABC Family, KidsWB, anywhere.
Sincerely, Your Fangirl. |

If you're displeased you can always drop by the fansubbers. They've done the entire S1 of Pretty Cure. Which is what this broadcasting station has acquired.
Overall quality is probably one of the best around with lots of supplementery materials provided to give a more accurate translation even for the obscure cultural references. Perhaps the pro-industry US people can avoid it though because of their opinions on licencing. Priestess_Sally |

It doesn't seem like a hard show to follow, even if you don't know the language.

Yes, but after you think about it, it's ridiculous to expect someone to spend comparativley unreasonable ammounts of money for an untranslated show in an area of the world that the release isn't made for. If you import R2s, generally it's because you're a gignatic diehard fan dork-like person, but realistically, not everyone can afford to do that. |

In addition, you would need a Region 2 DVD player which would cost even more.
And, believe it or not, most people want to be able to understand what characters are saying and what is going on. |

Only problem with that is that Veronica Taylor only played as young Sanji. Luffy is played by Erica Schroeder, NOT Veronica Taylor. |

The region-free DVD player that I bought cost me $20 (less then most DVDs in Japan). It's an off brand but other then that it works perfectly fine with reasonable quality. I buy R2s of Galaxy Angel and Nurse Witch Komugi, but as Steven said, it's because I'm a "gignatic diehard fan dork-like person" of the shows. I also like the extra goodies they pack in with the DVDs. |
